Government of Wales Bill

Proceeding contribution from David Jones (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Government of Wales Bill.
I note that the word ““effect”” is used in clause 100(1)(a) and (c), while the word ““impact”” is used in paragraph (b). Will the Minister please explain—[Interruption.] Clearly, an Act of Parliament uses words in a particular manner in order to convey a particular meaning; at least, one hopes that it does. Can the Minister explain why the word ““impact”” is used in paragraph (b), and the word ““effect”” in paragraphs (a) and (c)?
